Telling the Truth to People Using Various Benevolent Means

Aug. 15, 2000

Greetings,

Currently Falun Dafa disciples in different areas are, in various forms, stepping forward to present the truth of Dafa to the public. Having carefully read Using at Will, I have realized that we should let go of all the mental obstacles of ordinary people and "employ as [one] wishes" to clarify the truth of Dafa and harmonize Dafa using various benevolent means and conducts.

After having gone to Beijing over the past year to protect the Fa, I think the police, whether in Beijing or in local areas, should all have a general idea of us by now. Though they may not understand us, they should be clear in their minds that we will not do any harm to the society. Only because they have to perform their jobs, some of them feel that it is hard to openly acknowledge that we are being mistreated. However, they will not allow us to go to Beijing, otherwise they will be considered as not doing their jobs. Therefore, they have no choice but "punish us severely." I have gone to Beijing for four times, and I dealt with the same policemen time and time again. They did not want to accept Dafa. Then, why should we insist for them to change their attitude towards Buddha Fa, which is indestructible? However, with the wide-spread lies, how could ordinary people have a fair chance to know Dafa and therefore properly position themselves for the future? Then, I realized that I needed to tell the truth to the general public. Every being will be shaken by Dafa. Either one will go with it, or one will go against it. During the process of Fa rectification in the human world, every life has to make a choice. I think that we are not insisting on anyone to acknowledge us, neither are we forcing anybody to change his or her mind, especially those lives who are already doomed to be eliminated. Many policemen have had enough contacts with Dafa disciples, and most of them have formed their own opinions. Some of them have relatively subjective views. In this regard, I think that with the progress of Teachers Fa rectification in the human world, we need to go beyond the our own self-established boundaries so that we can provide an opportunity to those lives who do not know the truth of Dafa. We need to adopt better ways to "assist the teacher in the human world." Of course, "Dafa has boundless inner meanings," and it is impossible for anything to be done in one single format. Here, I only talk about my own understanding based on my personal cultivation environment and cultivation process. Since "a persons wish is very important," practitioners wanting to go to Beijing can be a necessary and primary way to protect the Fa as well. As far as figuring out which way one should choose [to protect the Fa], all one needs to do is to let go of the concept of "how I should cultivate," and instead thinks in terms of what Dafa requires one to do. When the righteous thought emerges, one will naturally know what to do. Dont you agree?

I think the way of posting articles about the truth of Dafa is a very good. Everyone can do it as long as one wants to, and it is very hard for the police to defend against. Meanwhile, I also use the method of mailing information to people to enable Dafa to reach their hearts. Under the high-handed campaign of condemnation and slandering, many people still do not know the truth about Dafa. Teacher said, "good or evil comes from a persons spontaneous thought." Shouldnt we give every being a fair opportunity to position oneself for the future? Doing so is also the compassion that we need to cultivate.
